Spotify forgets previous 'playing' song when closed and reopened

My Question or Issue

When I return to Spotify after an hour or so, the song that was previously playing is no longer in the play section at the bottom. It's like the app resets itself after a short inactive time, sending me to the home screen. This means that I'll then restart the playlist I was playing before, hearing the same songs again. It also means I can't just open the app and hit 'play' because there is nothing selected to play anymore. 

I've tried reinstalling the app (which just removed my downloaded songs), closed other apps in case it was a memory related issue, and reset the phone itself. Nothing has worked yet. 

Help.
